Police said the incident occurred about 8:30 p.m. in the area of Seaver Street and Blue Hill Avenue. Police said a girl was hurt along with her 40-year-old father and 22-year-old friend in a wheelchair.

The Boston Herald reported that the man and his daughter were walking the friend to a bus stop when the Toyota Avalon drove up onto the median.

"He made a wrong turn some way, somehow, because for him to make a turn and run smack into them, right into them … I don’t know. I don't know how that happened," a witness said.

Family said the man shoved his daughter out the way of the car and took most of the impact.

Authorities said the father suffered head and face injuries.

Boston police said three victims were transported to area hospitals with non-life threatening injuries.

Police said the driver did stay at the scene. The crash is under investigation and the driver was not immediately charged.
